Barriers to Implementing a Racial Justice Curriculum: CERA Comparison of Family Medicine Program Directors' and Residents' Perspectives.
Article in Family medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesThe 2023 Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) program requirements for family medicine residencies state that family physicians must have the competence to address racial and ethnic health disparities experienced by their patients. Racial justice curricula (RJC) or antiracism curricula can provide residencies with the tools faculty and residents need. This study explores the differences in perceived barriers between family medicine program directors (PDs) and residents.
methodsSurvey questions on RJCs were included in the 2020 Council of Academic Family Medicine Educational Research (CERA) survey of PDs and 2021 CERA survey of residents. Participants' perceived top two barriers to implementing an RJC in their residency program were illustrated with Sankey diagrams. We used the χ2 test and logistic regression for analysis.
resultsOf the 578 participants included, 312 (54%) were PDs and 266 (46%) were residents. Compared to PDs, residents were more likely to identify as female, less likely White, and more likely from community-based, nonuniversity-affiliated residency programs. PDs ranked lack of faculty training as the most important barrier, while residents ranked lack of time as the top barrier. Residents also were significantly more likely to rank lack of faculty interest and resident interest as barriers.
conclusionsFamily medicine PDs and residents identified different barriers to implementing an RJC. Additional research is needed to investigate the impact of knowledge and culture on residency programs' receptiveness to addressing racial and ethnic health disparities.
